  • Also what you think about telepathy, how can it be possible that it works?

  • I am telepathic, I am maybe the only really telepathic person in the world. You should not think that I could be Schizophrenic.

    I can exchange voice, video, smell, people can move small move muscles on my body from distance up to few kilometer and much more

    and all messages from me are transmitted to big number of people so I am a Mental Radio.

    One of the most advanced things I can do is to talk brain to brain and it is very fascinating,

    works 100% and it is really talk direct to brain.

  • can we remove that gene that makes us feel afriad???

  • of course this study is not intended to produce such absolute claims that risk takers are that way because of a gene.

  • Our behavior can not be understand because we all differ. If you dont know the history of people or their background; it even chases back to their ancestry...So we'll just never know, and we don't need to. Science only goes so far when it comes to understanding the brain.

  • Could you indicate me where to find the paper where it's been published? or the magazine, etc. I'd like to know more about it either by reading or by contacting the authors. Thank you in advance.
